I have been having an issue with the BN7 for a couple years now. It seems that in hot weather driving that once the temp guage reaches 190 or higher that it does not want to idle too well and will c

Don't early 6-cyl cars have the fuel pump located directly over the exhaust? This can cause vapor lock symptoms like you describe. I think that's why the fuel pump was relocated to the non-exhaust si

Bob's response regarding vapor lock is spot on. Wrapping some header tape around the exhaust pipe under the fuel pump on my BN1 did the trick for me. Also be sure to bring an extra pair of knickers f

And you probably should sew some exhaust tape into you undies. Nothing melts Ambla trim quite like a hot shart. Fortunately, I have leather seats. And I probably should add ....... "don't ask me how

When your Healey sits hot and does not want to start, try placing it in neutral, do not depress the clutch, and hit the starter. Several years ago I was having that problem in the Florida summers whe

I believe the owners manual suggests nuetral and no clutch for all starts, certainly for the older cars like our BN7"s; My son who is a manual and shop manual guru/techie pointed this out to me early

I would have thought the opposite.....with the clutch depressed, the input shaft is disengaged and the only thing turning is the engine. Whereas, with the clutch not depressed and the car in neutral,

When You start the car with the clutch depressed, You apply pressure on the crankshaft thrust bearing. But as there is not much oil then (and when You press the clutch squeeze that little out), it ca

Good tip. Also, my BJ8 hot starts better if I depress the gas pedal about halfway while cranking. Bob -- ** Bob Spidell San Jose, CA bspidell@comcast.net ** __________________________________________

The reason that it is easier to start in neutral is that when you depress the clutch you put all of the force it takes to open the clutch diaphragm on to the flywheel and crank shaft. When it4is in n

At idle in neutral with a stable RPM, push the clutch pedal in. If RPM drops, that indicates the drag from the throwout bearing and thrust washers against the crankshaft is greater than the resistanc

Depressing the clutch puts forward pressure on the crank pushing it against the thrust washers and increasing friction, thus creating more "drag" for the starter to overcome. Best--Michael Oritt ____
